Episode 169: A Lot of Yik-Yak and Tobruk
Things get a little weird on this episode. OK, maybe not that weird as Erik & Sergio Mims delve into some Ealing comedies, war films and a pair of television comebacks. Sergio finally gives his take on Todd Phillips’ Joker and tells us of his latest commentary track. In the middle of all of this though they go through a trio of films that run the gamut from one of Charlie Sheen’s first big roles to what maybe should have been Tawny Kitaen’s last. And Erik presents his theory on the film he somehow wiped away from memory that has been described as “Nickelodeon by way of David Lynch.”
